are the crosses fingers anoying cuz ive heard they bunch up or somthin when you cradle so i dont want that. i also take alot of faceoffs so i need somthing good for that.
Supercrosses don't bunch when you cradle. They are just simply amazing. Use them, own them, buy them, blah blah blah. Go to www.laxnation.com and read their reviews. Plus supercrosses rock for facing.

just get a cheap pair if youre just using them for the summer.
Nah, they don't fall apart. They get wear and tear, but they don't fall apart.

i really like my freaks, but your going to have to make the final decision because people here will pump you with both sides of the story, anyways freaks have awesome movement and unequaled protection, however the knuckles are a problem, the only way to get hit there though is if your making a complete fist. The palms are nice and allow you an option of using tape or not more than most gloves will. The crosse's knuckles don't hinder movement however i have seen them break in game and become absolutely useless, the padding on the crosse's is less than that of the freaks, yet still adequate, the movement, i would not say is any better than the freaks, the price however is, i know you can get freaks at lacrossedigest if your signed in for 122-127 and i believe the crosse's are 110, so if you want to pay the extra $17 then i'd go freaks.

i have gels and i really like them, i just got crosses and i can already tell im going to like them, i also have worn merc prostars before, they werent bad gloves but i could not get used to the cuffs, so i got rid of them. i have tried glads on and they seem nice, if i remeber right thought they felt a lot heavier than my crosses.

i use a pair of glad field gloves with the thumb taped... awesome gloves, better than any others i've tried- i don't like the freaks cause the glove just seemed hella stiff, though i could be wrong

When you're cheating, the skinny fingers allow you to stick them through the larger holes in other people's pockets.
